You'll find that negativity and hate towards alternative lifestyles is strong anywhere you go. I'm very upset to see such negativity towards a serious post about a serious topic. There are members who have alternative lifestyles and who are insterested in learning from the information posted.
I'd like everyone here to stop the negativity and ignore the post if you don't feel it's something you wish to read.
Lanky, you can stop the unwated comments by not posting the "chicks with dicks" etc... comments.

i was suprised to see people on a forum like this attack someone just because they dont agree with a post? alot of us big muscled up freaks have to deal with prejudice and stereo types about weight lifters,and steroids.who are we to judge or condem anyone for there own personal choices in life?im a straight man,and i found the info he posted interesting.maybe we got some homophobic members with some serious insecurity issues about there own sexuality? lol! shit, live and let live bros!

Before this thread veers completely into the ditch, there are some aspects to transexual hormone treatment that are of interest to bodybuilders.
For MTF transexuals, their goals are almost the complete opposite of bodybuilders - they want less testosterone, more estrogen, and actually desire gyno. Most take estrogen and progesterone, and take anti-androgens like spironolactone to reduce their testosterone levels.
FTM transexuals' horomone treatments are very similar to bodybuilders - they take test injections usually at HRT levels, and need lots of AI to bring their estrogen levels down to that of a normal male. They have to deal with most of the side effects that guys on a cycle have to deal with - high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high RBC - but not gyno since most have surgery to remove their breasts.
I remember seeing a documentary on cable a few years ago about people who have undergone sexual reassignment surgery. One was a FTM who had been a male for about 10 years. He worked out and was probably taking AAS as well. He was fairly ripped and had nice definition. His overall muscle mass was nothing special by board standards, but I think the average guy would love to have his physique. One thing that was interesting was that as a women she had a full head of hair, but as a man he now had MPB and had lost most of his hair.
It really is amazing how much of our appearance, behavior, and sense of identity are determined just by the levels of a few chemicals in our bodies.
